Create bucket with region "us-east-1" return error

[zentechtungtran]

when using ExAws.S3.put_bucket/3, with the region "us-east-1", the response is always
{:error, {:http_error, 400, "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>\n<Error><Code>InvalidLocationConstraint</Code><Message>The specified location-constraint is not valid</Message><LocationConstraint></LocationConstraint></Error>"
I read that with "us-east-1" region, the "LocationConstraint" element is not necessary, then may be in ex_aws/s3.ex file line 269, default case should be handled.
I'm using {:ex_aws, "~> 1.0.0-beta0"}
I attached 2 requests debug info here, they all return the same error.

1/ [debug] Request URL: "https://s3.amazonaws.com/testabcd/"
[debug] Request BODY: "<CreateBucketConfiguration xmlns=\"http://s3.amazonaws.com/doc/2006-03-01/\">\n <LocationConstraint></LocationConstraint>\n</CreateBucketConfiguration>\n"

Can you gist the code you're running to create this request?

I think it is not only this project's problem:
boto/boto3#125

Yeah basically you want to do put_bucket("bucket_name", ""). However, I should probably handle making "us-east-1" produce an empty string location constraint.

This is a great case of one of the things that makes me rant about how badly designed the S3 API is.

Fixed on master.
